Santa Rosa Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Courageous Couples Counseling

Everything is easier when you feel confident that your partner is in your corner. Sharing the weight of your struggles and amplifying life's joys in what makes relationships worth all the work. Our greatest emotional wounds come from our relationships, and our romantic relationships hold the most healing capacity for not only our collective healing but our individual healing as well.

Alen Schwab

I work best with people who want to understand themselves, people who want to make sense of their past, and those looking for support with anxiety and depression.

Rebecca (Rowan) Levy

It may seem that the world is throwing you more than you can practically or emotionally handle. I provide therapy individuals and couples who may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain that they are on the right track, or concerned with how others perceive them. I have often worked with people who are distrusting of their gut, or feel like they don't fit in.

Olivia Parker

Our relationships with ourselves can be complicated. Together, let’s better understand how your life circumstances have gotten you to where you are today. What is working for you? What is not working for you? How is your relationship with yourself affecting your relationships with others?

Lindsay Elizondo

I specialize in working with women, young adults, relationship issues, depth work, the LGBTQ+ community, and religious harm/trauma. I really enjoy working with people who are sensitive or have always felt a bit "different." Much healing can be had in challenging messages you've received about who you're "supposed" to be, reconnecting with your body and emotions, accepting yourself as you are, and re-centering your values and your voice.

Phoenix Song

I love working with Queer and Trans folks who feel things deeply and intuitively, and who feel a calling to bring their gifts and offerings into this world! I find that these gifts of empathy, sensitivity, and intuition also have shadow sides that can rob us of their joy. These shadow sides can lead to burn out, depletion, repeated relationships and situations that are unhealthy, being used or taken advantage of, or often even trauma and abuse (past or present).

If you are an Autistic adult or teen seeking autism-focused and neurodivergent affirming therapy, I will help you feel safe, supported, and heard with compassion and, as an Autistic therapist myself, I truly get it! Autism-focused therapy is informed by the neurodiversity affirming model to address your unique concerns by reducing anxiety, depression, masking, autistic burnout, meltdowns & shutdowns, low self-esteem, and difficulties with work or school performance, among many other concerns.

David Brown

I am uniquely skilled in engaging the struggles related to trauma, life transitions, and the LGBTQ community. Many of the men and women who choose to work with me are in the grips of anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, or relationship challenges. Many are highly motivated professionals that are self-reliant and achievement-focused, but often struggle with self-defeating thoughts and patterns that keep them feeling stuck.

Barbara Hooks

Life can be challenging, and at times, despite our best efforts we can feel stuck or lost. My clients are looking to make specific changes in their lives and want an interactive therapist to help provide specific tools and strategies to guide this process. I help clients reduce stress, and shift their relationship to painful emotions. I frequently work with people around boundaries, relationship concerns, life transitions, and issues related to gender identity.

Have you struggled with finding safety or presence in your own body? I can help. If you are someone who is struggling with developmental/acute trauma, neurodivergence, and/or topics relating to LGBTQIA+ identity we could be a good therapeutic fit. I will accompany and support you in feeling secure as you traverse your body's metaphors and your psyche's messages. You know yourself best, and I am dedicated to co-creating a space that empowers you and expands your capacity to self-regulate.

Isobel Heath

Therapy improves relationships. The individuals I work with are often tired of repeating the same patterns again and again, whether it's dating abuse, codependency, or chronic relationship conflict, anxiety, avoidance or indecision. They're ready to get to the root causes and finally make real change. Of course, all relationships start with and reflect your relationship to yourself. If you're dealing with a harsh inner critic or low self-worth, this internal relationship needs attention first.

Dr. Rona Maglian

Many of my clients see me for support with managing their chronic pain or illness. Others are looking to heal from trauma, anxiety, or burnout. I’m deeply committed to working with diverse & marginalized communities. I often meet with women of color, professionals from immigrant families, and trans and gender expansive folks. I'm also passionate about helping fellow AAPI folks navigate difficult family and cultural dynamics, or challenge the inner critic & imposter syndrome at work.

Dian Grier

I am a very open minded therapist and work to help people become authentic and feel comfortable expressing themselves fully. I help look at life from a broader perspective, which helps with anxiety, depression and other issues. I have worked with many clients who live alternative lifestyles. I enjoy my work and seeing change over time. I have been told by many clients that I am easy to talk to and down to earth. I will offer you feedback on your issues and offer interaction.

Shelley Samuels

Restarting your life? Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, isolated? Do you feel stuck in the past ? Or maybe you think you are powerless, too old, too young, too different, or low energy? Some of the folks I enjoy working with are members of my queer community, older adults, creative types and people connected to the earth who care about our planet and may be experiencing climate grief. I appreciate transitioners of all types and lovers of learning.

Danielle Forastieri Short

My clients are creatives, artists, healers, highly sensitive people, and empaths. They are also people who are struggling with chronic pain and/or fatigue, low self-esteem, people pleasing, attachment wounding, nervous system regulation and executive functioning.

Mike Lysaght

I provide specialized care to the LGBT+ community with an eye toward inclusion, non-judgment and sex-positivity. I work consciously with all variations of orientation, relationship, and gender in my practice, along with maintaining professional connections within the community to advance my work in sexual minority and gender-variant care (NCSF, WPATH).

Moushumi Ghose

Sexuality & pleasure are stigmatized, this plays into how we feel about ourselves, our bodies. I specialize in sex, intimacy and relationship issues specifically undoing harmful stories which no longer work for us, which hold us back, harm us. I work to re-educate, and then to empower. I work with clients to signifcantly reduce distress and undo longer standing concerns. Find your truth and build on that!

Jake Sims

Depression. Anxiety. Self-loathing. Low self-esteem. These are common issues that people face when it comes to mental health challenges, which are enough to make life difficult. Chances are your romantic relationships, friendships, and most importantly your relationship with yourself have been greatly impacted by these. There's this sense that something has to change, but you don't know where to begin. Trust me I understand, because I’ve been there.
